Fairlington Presbyterian Church
Alexandria, VA

Owner: Fairlington Presbyterian Church
Architect: Sanchez Palmer

The renovation of Fairlington Presbyterian Church (“FPC”) is considered “a season of growth.” They considered this “the most substantial renovation” in its 75-year history. Monarc was selected as the GC to perform this renovation.

The project included the installation of a new elevator, reconfiguration of the office and volunteer areas with a reception desk, a wheelchair-accessible route into the building, and access to all floors, and expanded the second floor to provide a new pastor’s office, meeting room, and storage closets. Monarc completed the renovations while FPC still operated. Monarc worked with FPC to ensure the congregations still had parking lot access and could safely enter the building when required. This allowed FPC’s various activities to remain fully operational during the week.
